Hosea 8:11-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 When Ephraim multiplied altars to expiate sin,
they became to him altars for sinning.
12 Though I write for him the multitude of my instructions,
they are regarded as a strange thing.(A)
13 Though they offer choice sacrifices,[a]
though they eat flesh,
the Lord does not accept them.
Now he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins;
they shall return to Egypt.(B)
14 Israel has forgotten his Maker
and built palaces,
and Judah has multiplied fortified cities,
but I will send a fire upon his cities,
and it shall devour his strongholds.(C)

Hosea 8:11-14
English Standard Version
11 Because Ephraim (A)has multiplied altars for sinning,
they have become to him altars for sinning.
12 (B)Were I to write for him my laws by the ten thousands,
they would be regarded as a strange thing.
13 As for my sacrificial offerings,
(C)they sacrifice meat and eat it,
but the Lord does not accept them.
(D)Now he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins;
(E)they shall return to Egypt.
14 For (F)Israel has forgotten (G)his Maker
and (H)built palaces,
and (I)Judah has multiplied fortified cities;
so (J)I will send a fire upon his cities,
and it shall devour her strongholds.
